The Gravedigger Ghost Bus Tour starts at Trinity College where your guide will transport you back some 600 years ago to when the old Augustinian Priory and, of course, the plague house were there. The latter of which the guide is all too familiar with… But just ignore the coughing and listen to his tales of a plague-ravaged Dublin!

Hear an account of plague victims trying to soothe their wounds in the waters of the city’s drinking supplies
